USDA offices will stay open, as Congress will avoid a partial government shutdown. The Senate is expected to vote today on a spending bill to keep the government running.
The House passed a continuing resolution earlier this week, which keeps the government running through September. Senate Democrats were expected to filibuster when it reached the floor.
However, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer now says he will advance the bill, saying there are no winners in a government shutdown.
